What are the process benefits compared with nutsche filter-dryers and centrifuges?
The fully automatic solids discharge system of the AUTOPRESS eliminates residual product heels, which is an advantage over “nutsche” type filters. The AUTOPRESS also provides for increased flexibility, higher filtration areas and is more easily installed and controlled than peeler or inverting-basket centrifuges. It is an alternative to manual operations where solids are transferred to tray, shelf or vacuum dryers or into drums.
